Bertrand Delacretaz commented on TIKA-9:
----------------------------------------

> What classloading changes in Java 5 do you think would help us?

What I meant is that allowing Java 5 might allow us more flexibility in finding 
the magic toolkit that would solve our (as yet potential) classloading issues. 
But I don't think the language level itself would help much.

> Make source code compilable on Java 1.4 by removing Java 5 features such as 
> generics.
